Michelle

[Italiano]

She better practice more than in betweens. She also better figure out a way to jump, Risk or no risk.

[nyskatefan]

Why don't you call her and let her know ... I'm sure she would be so appreciative. I can't imagine how she has managed all these years without your advice. :lol:

[Samskate]

Italiano, why did you even post this thread except to bash Michelle?:roll:

[drmsk8r]

What do you mean figure out a way to jump? I watch her jump everyday and she has great speed, height and clean jumps. Her speed and jump height is getting better everyday working with Rafael. I have seen her doing triple-triple.

nyskatefan, love your response, LOL! Yes, I'm also sure Michelle has absolutely no clue as how to jump, or win multiple championships, etc... :roll:

[Italiano]

I started this thread by mistake. I was answering someone in another thread. While we're on the subject though, Michelle has great height? We must have been watching two differant skaters all these years. To the mods, since I did not mean to start this thread and it has nothing to do with articles or news, feel free to lock it. Thanks

[nyskatefan]

You're right about one thing Italiano ... we surely must have been watching two different skaters all this time. We were watching Michelle Kwan ... who were you watching?

That's a rather rude response to someone just voicing her opinion and not very appropriate here because I doubt this person even knows Michell Kwan to even get close enough to do that. Worshipping is not the same thing as brown nosing.

[nyskatefan]

Well Bondo, that confirms what I have thought all along. There is a great deal you don't know.

Edited to say, thanks Kemy for your support, but don't worry ... that's par for the course around here ... unless of course, you promise to denounce the Kween ... which I won't, hence this treatment.

And you are right, I do not know Michelle at all.

This is really amusing. Even a "mistake" post turns into an ugly fest!:roll:

[nyskatefan]

Bondo ... show me where I called you a Michelle Kwan hater, hmmm?

[hiliairyh]

Michelle's jumps have good enough height. IMO more height than Kristi and Tara, maybe even Sarah. She controls the landings well. Kristi, Tara and Michelle jump landings have good run outs, that is much better than other skaters who can't control their jump exits, then their "butts" will be "kissing" the ice.

How does nyskatefan's opinion about Michelle translate to "butt kissing" or even "Michelle Sunglasses"? BTW, who is the judge about neutrality here? You? Next time when you write something positive about the skaters whom you like, may we apply that "butt kissing" description to you?

[Samskate]

Including your trends, Bondo? ;)

[nyskatefan]

Well since you referred to me by name in your post, and in the next sentence talked about "people" labeling you a Kwan hater ... can't imagine why I would think you meant me. Please! :roll:

And hillairy, since when do I write positive things about skaters? Praising just isn't as much fun as criticizing. But it isn't like this is the only thread nyskatefan has posted in. One notices trends.

When do you write positive things? Actually IIRC, sometimes what you write about one particular skater is more than positive almost gushing, or actually it seems like you do have some sun glasses on when it comes to that one particular skater.

I am quite aware of your trends Bondo.

Closing thread now for obvious reasons.
